Ive done that so many times! (shin digs i mean!)

To me there go faster stripes!

It really hurts tho, especially when you have V12's and terror pins! Then start doing no footers without your shin guards because its too hot!

V12's do indeed smart.
also for some strange reason - wellgo cheap nasties are terible when wearing jeans. i was at the dirt jumps and contact was made... the b*^*at not only hit but then proceeded to pull downwards along with the jeans, effectively doubling the width and depth of the wound - ouch!!!

lesson here is dont wear jeans thinking they will protect you...

yeh right, i find if i knock the scars it hurts more than the other leg.

thats a nice picy, not trying to do the "whos got the biggest scars" thing, but mine were like that, that was 18 months ago... went dirt jumping beginning of june this year, did exectly the same as the time before on top of the existing scars.
then dh about 2 months ago, smacked the pedal into the shin again, luckily it didnt drag, just left a dmr v12 pin hole in the shin.

oh well, im gona wait to see how many people post back saying what a monkey!

Trials riding ruined my life shins.

On the plus side, I pretty much feel no pain in that area now, and all that scar tissue doesn't bleed too badly.
